OpenAI Launches GPT-5 With Intelligent Routing and Enhanced Safety

Built-in routing steers queries by complexity, making GPT-5 the default; previous models will retire after a 60-day transition period.

Overview

  • GPT-5 integrates an intelligent router that automatically directs simple prompts to fast-response modes and complex queries to deep-reasoning subsystems.
  • The model delivers significant gains in reasoning accuracy, speed and domain expertise across tasks such as coding, writing, math and healthcare.
  • Users can access GPT-5 variants—full, Mini, Nano and Chat—through ChatGPT’s free, Plus, Pro, Team, Enterprise and Edu plans, with free-tier users switching to GPT-5 Mini after hitting a usage cap.
  • New “safe completions” safety measures reduce hallucinations and overconfident outputs by providing measured responses or refusing harmful or deceptive requests.
  • OpenAI begins a 60-day phase-out of all previous GPT models, after which GPT-5 becomes the default across all tiers and APIs.
